AgentVox host daemon — runs on machines you want to control hands-free via the AgentVox voice app.
AI Security Review
scanned 20d ago · by lpm-firewall-aiThe source confirms conditional forwarding of a locally sourced xAI key to an unrestricted configured endpoint. This supports a warning for credential exposure, not a claim of deliberate theft or a block-level attack.
Static reason
High-risk behavior combination matched malicious policy.; previous stored version diff introduced dangerous source
Trigger
The CLI loads a key and performs an inference request while XAI_BASE_URL points to a destination outside the intended xAI service.
Impact
A misconfigured or untrusted endpoint can receive the xAI key and use it outside this package.
Mechanism
The configurable base URL is used directly for requests that include the key in an Authorization bearer header, with no destination restriction shown.
AI rationale
The source confirms conditional forwarding of a locally sourced xAI key to an unrestricted configured endpoint. This supports a warning for credential exposure, not a claim of deliberate theft or a block-level attack.
Evidence
dist/cli.js
Network endpoints1
api.x.ai/v1
Decision evidence
public snapshotAI called this Suspicious at 93.0% confidence as Dangerous Capability with medium false-positive risk.
Evidence for warning
- The host CLI reads an existing xAI key from XAI_API_KEY or ~/.agentvox/xai.key and uses it when creating the inference client.
- The inference client allows XAI_BASE_URL to override its default destination and sends the key as a bearer token to that destination.
- The request occurs when the CLI performs inference; the source does not show destination validation or a gate restricting the key to xAI.
Evidence against
- The default inference endpoint is xAI’s API, and the key is used for inference requests.
- Vox enrollment sends a token only to the explicitly supplied proxy URL as part of the enrollment command.
